No it's not.
Some of those games are funded and developed wouldn't of been made if it wasn't for the fact they wanted to have games to sell the console. They are not fucking you over by not having it on your system, you just feel annoyed that it's not.
It's simply a business decision and marketing tool and because it's valuable you get more and better games than you would of gotten before. If there weren't such exclusives you wouldn't have such incentives and they wouldn't always exist in the first place.

Exclusives aren't unique to consoles. Plenty of games are PC only, and therefore fuck over consumers who do not have a PC. More precisely, they're also Windows only, fucking over consumers who are on Linux or Mac.
At the end of the day, very few games on available on everything, and they shouldn't be required to be.
That's one of the reasons I hate consoles on an ideological level. Unless there are technical reason that make porting the game so hard that it's just not worth it, the only reason for "exclusives" to exist is to fuck over consumers.
